Golf

Having put in more than 50 rounds of golf this year, I knew I wanted to celebrate a fantastic season with something special. The answer was easy and it was right in front of my face. Adjacent to our beautiful Riverside is the Fairmont Hot Springs Resort Airport; why not fly in for my tee time?

It’s an exciting day at FHSR! Riverside Golf Course has officially opened along with our RV resort. There were smiles abound as golfers took to the driving range and first tee box. And even more exciting, skiers and tubers are still enjoying the amazing spring like conditions up at our ski hill. All of this on the SAME day!

It’s officially golf season! Riverside Golf Course opened today, March 28 and the smiles couldn’t have been wider! Even better, for a limited time here at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort you can Ski and Golf in the SAME DAY! Mountainside and Creekside both open April 4 and the Ski Area and Tube Park are open until April 6. Take advantage and come on out to Fairmont Hot Springs Resort.

The waters are high, but the grass is dry at Riverside Golf Course. This week we have lots of golfers enjoying the beautiful sunshine and the green grass on all three of the Fairmont Hot Springs Resort Golf Courses. What a great opportunity to cruise around on the golf cart and snap some photos of everyone enjoying their day. Here are some photos of Riverside Golf Course:

Golf originated from a game played on the coast of Scotland during the 15th century. Golfers would hit a pebble instead of a ball around the sand dunes using a stick or club. After 1750, golf evolved into the sport as we recognize it today. In 1774, Edinburgh golfers wrote the first standardized rules for the game of golf.

I’m no meteorologist but these changes in temperature and weather condition are just plain crazy! Yesterday it was -3, grey and cloudy and we were under 5cm of snow. Today, +3, sunny and blue skies and the golf course greens look lovelier than ever! I just went down to Mountainside which is in full spring mode and there were plenty of people on the putting green and motoring around the course in their carts. Spring arrived overnight and not a moment too soon – Riverside has now been open for a week and Mountainside and Creekside Par 3 opened today!
